Paula Robinson – Qigong for Health & Healing
Venue; Community Hall, 2 Alnwick St (next door to Town Hall), Warkworth.
Open at 6.45pm for a 7pm start. $5 Koha – Harmony Circle is non-profit.
When I say I teach Qigong (Chee-gong) the most common response is “What’s Qigong?”. My easy reply to that is… “It’s an incredible and accessible practise where you can learn to heal yourself, easily, simply and quickly.”
How awesome would that be if you were to find a method of healing your own self that fits into your lifestyle, that resonates with you, and that produces positive results!
I practise and teach Spring Forest Qigong. It’s a practise that anyone, of any age and ability can do.
This particular Qigong has been simplified to be both easy and effective. It can be done standing, sitting or lying down.
I’ll explain how this works and how it may help you, along with some information around the 5 Element Healing Moves, Yin & Yang and Qi (Energy).
Win a healing session or a one-on-one qigong lesson in the evening draw!
Everyone welcome, this is an open group, come along if you can, look forward to seeing you there!

However, last Saturday the group was able to clean up the area around the entrance to the park on Hillcrest Road. Weeds and rubbish were removed and a general tidy-up of the area was carried out.
The bridge at the entrance to the park off Old North Road was sprayed to remove mould and algae.
Once the new bridge at Kensington is completed the group hopes to carry out track clearing at the western end of the park along the Nukumea Stream.
Other activity in the park includes water testing and pest trapping.
Water quality testing of the Nukumea Stream is carried out each month. There was some concern over a blockage of the stream near the bridge on Hibiscus Highway.
Significant rain was needed to clear this blockage. Significant rainfall is something we have not had in this area for quite some time.
However, the limited rain that has fallen has been enough to clear the blockage and the stream is now running freely.
Scientists from Whitebait New Zealand regularly inspect the Nukumea stream for evidence of inanga and giant kokopu spawning but this just doesn't appear to be occurring.
Traplines are maintained in Eaves Bush and surrounding areas. A few possums have been caught and the limited disappearance of bait from bait stations suggests a fairly lengthy history of trapping has pest numbers reasonably under control.

They claim Auckland Council ignored expert advice on the risks for the project to spread kauri dieback disease.
Watercare had applied for resource consent to carry out earthworks and vegetation removal for the upcoming replacement of the Huia Water Treatment Plant.
Titirangi Protection Group’s (TPG) spokeswoman Belynda Groot said “it’s totally wrong” for consent to be given after abundant evidence from kauri dieback and ecology experts at the resource consent hearing in April this year advised against the build.
